libseccomp 2.3.1 uses negative (pseudo) syscall numbers by default

Hello,

New libseccomp is in yakkety proposed. There is a change, on some
architecutres, w.r.t. to canonical representation of syscall
numbers.....

There are normal syscall numbers and multiplexed ones. And some are
exposed as both - direct numbers and negative pseudo syscall numbers.
All filtering should remain in place for both direct and pseudo
numbers.

But I had to adjust our autopkgtests for this, and I'm wondering if
there are any other pieces of software to fix as a result of this
upstream change on some architectures (e.g. lxc, apparmor, click,
snapd, juju, etc....)
